The spectrum of continuous transfer operator arising in a time-energy dependent neutron transport equation is analyzed. Four theorems concerning on the spectrum are proved. A convolution theorem of the generalized Mellin energy transform is given. Also the completeness theorem necessary for a final solution is proved. A unique time decay constant 1 - c is found, which is dominant asymptotically.

In this paper, the problem of global asymptotic stability of uncertain stochastic neural networks with delay is considered. The delay is assumed to be time-varying and belong to a given interval. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, new delay-dependent stability criteria for the system is derived in terms of LMI(linear matrix inequality). Three numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of proposed method.

This paper presents new results on delay-dependent global exponential stability for uncertain linear systems with interval time-varying delay. Based on Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional approach, some novel delay-dependent stability criteria are derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) involving the minimum and maximum delay bounds. By using delay-partitioning method and the lower bound lemma, less conservative results are obtained with fewer decision variables than the existing ones. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the usefulness and effectiveness of the proposed method.

In general, deflection limit criteria of bridge design specifications would have been considered based on the static serviceability and structural stability. Dynamic serviceability induced from bridge vibration, as a comfort limit, actually has not been included in the criteria. Thus, it is necessary for dynamic serviceability to be considered in bridge vibration problems and for comfort limit on vibration to be needed for evaluating dynamic serviceability of bridges. In this paper, comfort limits of bridge structures considering the time duration exposed by vibration were examined with frequency and time dependent comfort limits, and they were evaluated by using the vibration signals measured from the existing bridges. Therefore, it is resulted that the time-dependent comfort limit considering the duration of vibration is an efficient estimate for evaluating dynamic serviceability of bridges.

This paper proposes a new condition about delay-dependent robust $H_{\infty}$ control of uncertain linear systems with time-varying delay and randomly occurring disturbances. The norm bounded uncertainties are subjected to the system matrices. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, a sufficient condition for designing a controller gain such that the closed-loop systems are asymptotically stable with $H_{\infty}$ disturbance level ${\gamma}$ is formulated in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Finally, two numerical examples are included to show the effectiveness of the presented method.

State-dependent call admission control (SDCAC) is proposed to make efficient use of scarce wireless resource in a hierarchical wireless network with heterogeneous traffic. With SDCAC, new calls are accepted according to an acceptance probability taking account of not only cell dwell time but also call holding time and system state (i.e., occupied bandwidth). An analytical method is developed to calculate performance measures of interest, e.g., new call blocking probability, forced termination probability, over. all weighted blocking probability. Numerical results with not only stationary but nonstationary traffic loads are presented to show the robustness of SDCAC. It is shown that SDCAC performs much better than the other considered schemes under nonstationary traffic load.

This paper presents controller design method for nonlinear radar gimbal system with parameter uncertainty and time delay. In order to consider nonlinearity of gimbal bearing frictional torque, we firstly represent fuzzy model for the nonlinear gimbal system, which is achieved by fuzzy combination of linear models through nonlinear fuzzy membership functions. And secondly we propose a delay dependent fuzzy $H_\infty$ controller design method for the delayed fuzzy model with parameter uncertainty and design radar gimbal controller. The designed controller stabilize gimbal system and guarantee $H_\infty$ performance. A computer simulation is given to illustrate stabilized control performances of the designed controller.

In this paper, we propose a delay-dependent guaranteed cost controller design method for uncertain linear systems with time delay. The uncertainty is norm bounded and time-varying. A quadratic cost function is considered as the performance measure for the given system. Based on the Lyapunov method, sufficient condition, which guarantees that the closed-loop system is asymptotically stable and the upper bound value of the closed-loop cost function is not more than a specied one, is derived in terms of Linear Matrix Inequalities(LMIs) that can be solved sufficiently. A convex optimization problem can be formulated to design a guaranteed cost controller, which minimizes the upper bound value of the cost function. Numerical examples show the activeness of the proposed method.

This paper is concerned with the time dependent service load behaviour of prestressed composite tee beams. The effects of creep and shrinkage of the concrete slab are modelled using the age adjusted effective modulus method and a relaxation approach. The tendon strain is determined considering compatibility of deformations and equilibrium of forces between the tendon and the composite tee beam. A parametric study is undertaken to study the influence of various aspects on the stress, strain and deformations of the concrete slab, steel beam and prestressing tendon. The effect of loading type and tendon relaxation has also been considered for various types of prestressing tendon materials. Recommendations are then made in relation to adequate span to depth ratios for varying levels of prestressing force.

Group scheduling, which is a kind of operations scheduling based on the GT concept is analyzed in a multi-stage manufacturing system. The purpose of this research is to develop and evaluate a heuristic algorithm for determining gro up sequence and job sequence within each group to minimize a complex cost function, i.e. the sum of the total pe-nalty cost for tardiness and the total holding cost for flow time, in a multi-stage manufacturing system with group setup time dependent upon group sequence. A heuristic algorithm for group sc heduling is developed, and a numerical example is illustrated. For the evaluation of the pro-posed heuristic algorithm, the heuristic solution of each of 63 problems is compared with that of random scheduling. The result shows that the proposed heuristic algorithm provides better solution in light of the proposed cost function.
